Japan Airlines (JAL) is offering free domestic flights in Japan for some passengers who book an international flight with the airline.

At the moment, the offer is available to passengers booking flights into Japan from a number of countries in North America and the Asia-Pacific region.

For example, it means that a passenger booking a flight from Thailand to Tokyo will be able to book a free flight from the Japanese capital to any other destination in Japan that JAL flies to.

According to the JAL website, the airline has 133 domestic routes and 66 international routes.

It's good news for tourists who'd like to explore more of Japan, but it could also help take the pressure off some of the country's most popular sights.

Almost 18 million international visitors came to Japan in the first half of 2024, according to the country's national tourism organization.

That's a record number of arrivals, and it means some popular tourist areas — including the center of Tokyo and Mount Fuji — can get overcrowded.

JAL's offer was first made available in early September to tourists from Canada, Mexico and the US.

By the end of the month, people traveling from Australia and New Zealand were also eligible, along with those from Thailand, Singapore, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, India and Taiwan.

JAL hopes to make it available to even more passengers in the future.

To take advantage of the offer, passengers must book their domestic flight at the same time that they make their international booking with JAL.

However, the airline said travelers from the US, Canada, Mexico and China will have to pay a little more — $100 for travelers from the US — if they plan to spend more than 24 hours in the first city they arrive in.

JAL Offers Free Domestic Flights for Some Tourists

"The software team at my client's company was struggling to complete their new product on time. As the project manager, my client knew he needed to improve communication across functions. He started weekly check-ins where engineering, design, product and marketing all presented updates and issues. This exposed dependencies between teams. For example, when engineering outlined a complex new feature, product argued it didn't align with goals and design flagged UI challenges. Rather than pushing back, each team offered suggestions to solve the other's problems.

This collaborative approach helped teams understand different perspectives. When later design presented mockups, engineering asked thoughtful questions about underlying assumptions. They found ways to simplify the feature while still meeting user needs. Similarly, when marketing had concerns about the launch date, product and engineering worked together to identify what could be cut or delayed without compromising the vision.

By the next check-in, dependencies were untangled and teams made better decisions together. Managers saw improved morale as people felt heard and helped each other. The transparent discussions gave confidence that the product was on track when minor issues did arise. In the end, my client's company launched their new software ahead of schedule with rave reviews. Regular cross-functional check-ins had fostered collaboration that eliminated silos and ensured project success."
